I'm not seeing the connection between two gay men and legalized prostitution. Could you elaborate a little?

If consensual sex between consenting adults conducted in the privacy of one's bedroom is of no concern to the state (between two gay men), then how could it take a stand against consensual sex between consenting adults conducted in the privacy of one's bedroom (between a paid prostitute and a john)? It's the exact same argument.

Now I see. But it's not the issue at hand here. Everything taken to an illogical enough length can become a slippery slope in theory.

Well, I have to ask - Is conventional (normal, heterosexual) sex between consenting adults in privacy prohibited in some states? I don't believe so. With that in mind, how would striking down this sodomy law make any difference WRT prostitution?

Also the government has the right to outlaw sex between two consenting adults, when one adult is a brother, the other his sister, or uncle-neice etc...
